I changed it. The word is butuulah (heroism) as opposed to batalah (heroine). So the translation would be tal azzatar is the embrace of heroism and martyrdom. Your curator's note still works, I think, because I think it is still true that the poster is highlighting how a non-trained woman exemplifies heroism-- I think that is precisely the point of the poster. You might want to change the title and alter the curator's note to match the new translation. N.
